Your Personal Story Matters with Nicole Shute, Customer Success at CareStory


Each of us comes with a life story, preferences, hobbies, interests, and unique family dynamics. All of our individual qualities come together to make us who we are. How do we share that story effectively when other people are caring for us? CareStory's platform "is designed to help families capture the essence of their loved ones, telling their stories and advocating for the care that they deserve."


Nicole Shute is my guest this week. She leads the Client Success at CareStory. CareStory is a nonmedical digital solution that provides holistic person-centered care for caregivers and families- all through the use of your smart device. Today Nicole and I talk all about why your loved ones' personal story matters, why empathy matters and how we bring that into our care with others. Thank you, Nicole, for sharing your story with us!

  • Insight into her experience as her grandfather lived in a senior living community

  • What are perceptions can be vs. reality of community life

  • The communication practices and observances

  • About CareStory and personalized communication

  • The importance of being connected to the personal story of those we serve
